A new laser technology could soon allow you to turn brown eyes of your to a beautiful blue. But you better make sure that blue eyes are what you really want because there is no reversing this surgery.
People with brown eyes have a pigment known as melanin in the front of their irises. People with blue eyes, or the recessive traits, have this brown melanin but only in the back of the iris. It is this lack of pigment that creates the blue color.
In Dr. Homer's procedure, which only takes about 20 seconds, a laser is used to remove the melanin from the top layer of the iris. Within a few weeks, the blue eye color emerges.
